Client Proxy Metadata

When the Client Proxy software redirects HTTP/HTTPS traffic, it adds metadata to the requests.

Other products, such as Skyhigh Web Security Gateway Service, use the metadata (for example, group membership) when applying web protection policies.

Authentication tokens — Tokens containing identity information about the user making the web request
Authentication version — Version of the metadata that Client Proxy is sharing
Client IP address — IP address of the endpoint where the traffic originated
Original destination IP address — Saved IP address of the server where the traffic is destined
Customer ID — Uniquely identifies the customer's organization
User ID — Uniquely identifies the user making the web request
User groups — Names of any groups where the user is a member
Process name — Name of the process that generated the traffic being redirected
Tenant ID — Unique GUID for a customer
System info — System information such as MAC address, host name, process uptime, operating system name, and operating system version
